Watch the video to see Copilot Cowork run a full process from start to finish.
What is Copilot Cowork for sales and finance teams?
Copilot Cowork is designed to run multi-step business tasks in the background so your team doesn’t have to manage every click and handoff.
In practice, it focuses on two common areas:
- Sales workflows – helping sales teams prioritize accounts, prepare materials, and stay in touch with stakeholders.
- Finance workflows – helping finance teams analyze budget data and package it into executive-ready outputs.
The key idea is to let Copilot Cowork handle the end-to-end flow of work, from analysis to content creation to organizing files, so your team can focus on decisions and conversations instead of manual steps.
How does Copilot Cowork streamline sales workflows?
In a sales scenario, Copilot Cowork can take on a full chain of tasks that usually require multiple tools and people. For example, it can:
- Use Work IQ to identify and return a ranked table of top accounts, so reps know where to focus first.
- Draft an account brief that pulls together key details about each priority account.
- Build a pitch deck tailored to that account, ready for review and customization.
- Email the account sponsor on a recurring weekly schedule, helping maintain consistent outreach without manual reminders.
All of this is designed to run from start to finish with no manual steps required for each action, so sales teams can reimagine how they spend their time—shifting from admin work to higher-value customer conversations.
How does Copilot Cowork support finance and reporting tasks?
For finance teams, Copilot Cowork focuses on turning raw budget data into organized, executive-ready outputs. A typical flow might include:
- Analyzing budget data to surface key trends and insights.
- Building an executive PowerPoint that summarizes the financial story for leadership.
- Creating an Excel summary that captures the underlying numbers in a structured format.
- Organizing everything into SharePoint so stakeholders can easily find and reuse the materials.
By handling these steps end to end, Copilot Cowork helps finance teams reshape how they manage recurring reporting cycles—reducing manual effort and making it easier to keep presentations, spreadsheets, and shared folders aligned.
